Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP)
What is FedRAMP
The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is a U.S. government-wide program that promotes the adoption of secure cloud services across the federal government by providing a standardized approach to security and risk assessment for cloud technologies and federal agencies. FedRAMP standardizes security requirements for the authorization and ongoing cybersecurity of cloud services in accordance with Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA),OMB Circular A-130, and FedRAMP policy. Simply put, FedRAMP is FISMA for the cloud.
Why is FedRAMP Important
- Under FISMA, the U.S. Office of Management and Budget now requires all federal agencies to use FedRAMP to validate the security of cloud services.
- A FedRAMP authorization certifies that the cloud products and services meet NIST and FISMA defined standards.
